Ian Seymour - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Carves up Yankees on Thursday Seymour took a no-decision Thursday against the Yankees, striking out three while allowing one hit and no walks in five shutout innings.

Impact Seymour cruised Thursday, holding the Yankees to an innocuous single in a dominant start. With Shane McClanahan (forearm) ruled out for the American League Division Series, Seymour's presence on the postseason pitching staff has become ever more important. It's worth noting Seymour fared slightly better out of the bullpen as opposed to the rotation -- the southpaw ends the regular season with a 3.90 ERA and 1.12 WHIP in 55.1 innings as a reliever versus a 4.44 ERA and 1.14 WHIP over 77 innings as a starter.

The four earned runs Seymour gave up were his most in a start since July 12 against the Mariners, and he now sports a 4.38 ERA and 1.17 WHIP across 127.1 innings this season. He's projected to make his next start against the Yankees next week on the road.

Impact Seymour flooded the zone Saturday, pouring in 58 of his 79 pitches for strikes in a strong start. The southpaw tends to get hurt by the long ball, as he's served up at least one home run in seven of his last eight outings, but he's fanned at least seven on six occasions during that span. He'll bring a 4.27 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 150:34 K:BB over 122.1 innings into his next scheduled appearance against the division-rival Red Sox.

Impact Seymour has now given up at least three runs in each of his last five games, though he had covered at least five frames in each of those outings prior to Sunday.

Impact Entering the game in the third inning after opener Casey Legumina had given Tampa Bay seven outs, Seymour didn't pitch poorly but was perhaps catching too much of the plate, tossing 65 of 88 pitches for strikes and hanging a belt-high sweeper in the fifth that Max Clark drove into the right-field seats for a two-run blast. Seymour has gone three straight outings without a win, serving up six homers in 16.2 innings en route to a 4.86 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 22:2 K:BB over that stretch. The southpaw will look to turn things around in his next trip to the mound, which lines up to come at home early next week against the Mets.

Earns third straight win Seymour (9-3) allowed one run on five hits and two walks while striking out seven over six innings to earn the win over the Mariners on Sunday.

Impact Seymour has won his last three outings (two starts), allowing just three runs over 16.2 innings with a 20:3 K:BB in that span. He had some ups and downs in July but looks to be getting on course as a starter after stretching out in the majors over the last couple of months. Seymour is at a 4.08 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 106:30 K:BB through 90.1 innings over 38 games (nine starts) this season, though he's also had some bulk-relief assignments. The southpaw's next appearance is projected to be at home versus the Orioles, and he should have some security in the rotation while Shane McClanahan (back) and Griffin Jax (elbow) are on the injured list.
